well i fabbed up some brackets with some sheet aluminum(20 ga), some 1/2 alum tubing, and had them welded onto the tanks, now the rad mounts as stock one would, the materials were here and there, and a few bucks for the tubing at the recycling place.






The welding however did cost me about 30$, but i have almost exactly 200$ in this one versus the fluidyne, tell me the difference.


I have specs of what i did with measurements etc. if someone is wanting to do the same down the road.... Would it be worth a write up for the FAQ section

i'm a little confused, do they not have one for our cars, or why go through that for a radiator?

it will not get over 200* so far..... it seems to be more efficient than the fluidyne, it should be better this afternoon when i put the water wetter in it.
